As an alternative energy practitioner/life coach I’ve studied the human energy system extensively.
I’ve found that the emotions of shame and guilt are the lowest on the negative energy scale.
The chart below is from Dr. David Hawkins, M.D. and PhD.
Although I don’t believe Dr. Hawkins is the one who created this chart, I do believe it is quite accurate.

The emotions of shame and guilt tend to be felt as heavy, contracting energies that disrupt the free flow of life-force energy through the physical body and its subtle systems.
These emotions are not just in your head. Shame and guilt — which I consider to be different sides of the same coin and work in concert with each other.
The negative frequencies of these emotions create energetic blockages, stagnation, and/or a sinking of life force energy that manifest as specific psychological patterns.
These patterns show up in the physical body as symptoms of disease.
Shame and guilt are emotions that tend to erode and actively attach a sense of self-worth. This negative energy contracts the aura or energy field and makes a person physically feel “dirty,” unclean, unworthy, or inherently flawed.
Over time, shame and guilt are considered to create “energetic imprints” in the physical body. These are sometimes ancestral, karmic or cellular and they reinforce these patterns until the energy is consciously moved.
When shame and guilt are felt deep enough for long enough, your physical body can become affected.
Deep shame and guilt can get lodged in the lower and mid-body energy centers (the major chakras) causing stagnation (blocked life energy flow) or a sinking of energy.
The affects on the physical body are as follows;
- Tension throughout the muscles and joints or just in specific areas
- Dysfunctional processes of the body such as poor digestion and skin conditions
- Chronic issues around sexuality, pleasure, creativity, and one to one relationships
- Generates feelings of unworthiness, low self-esteem, self-doubt, guilt, jealousy, and powerlessness which can then lead to aggressive or reclusive behavior.
- Feelings of great fear in the areas of intimacy, vulnerability, social anxiety, rigidity, pessimism and a victim mentality.
- Fosters a sense of perfectionism, ‘control-freak’ behavior, isolation, and constant self critique which leads to being a tyrant of sorts.

- Lower back or hip pain
- Reproductive/sexual issues (low libido, inability to climax, infertility, hormonal imbalances, sexual dysfunction)
- Urinary problems, pelvic tension, and abdominal discomfort.
- It can also contribute to broader endocrine or reproductive challenges
- Digestive problems (bloating, indigestion, IBS, ulcers, constipation)
- Chronic fatigue or adrenal exhaustion,
- Metabolic imbalances
- Liver/pancreas issues
- Upper abdominal tension
- Muscle tightness in the gut or back
- Sometimes there are weight fluctuations or blood-sugar issues
- Poor posture (slouching from feeling unsupported or small)
- Excessive menstrual bleeding
- General feeling of heaviness and depletion.
The physica body is thought to hold the imprints of emotional and psychological traumas and damage until the energy is consciously released.
Modalities like targeted Reiki, chakra work, or qi-moving can help, but they can also harm.
Unless you work with someone who has a very strong faith in our Divine Creator — GOD — and requests complete healing from God on your behalf — many things can go wrong.
Energy healers that rely on either their own energy or a limited understanding of Divine energy or life force can end up inviting in more harm than good. For their clients and themselves.
I know many people have been helped by energy practitioners like Reiki Masters. However, I speak from experience when I say they also invite in demons and dark spirits that create more damage. I know this because I was a client of these practitioners at one point and even an Usui Reiki Master.
That did not last long as I found a Spiritualist Healer rooted in Christianity and the Love and Faith of the Most High who was able to help me.
I have since gone on to heal from my own massive life force energy crisis and now help others as an alternative therapist and life energy coach.
Now, what I’ve described above are examples of what can go wrong in the physical body when there is deep shame and guilt caught with in a person’s energy system.

It’s not a complete list, but it does offer a map for how unprocessed shame and guilt is believed to bridge the energetic and emotional realms and affect the physical body.
Thanks for reading/listening. I wish you a very prosperous day. Renee
